Vignette
1) a brief evocative description, account, or episode
2) a small illustration or portrait photograph which fades into its background without a definite border
3) a short impressionistic scene that focuses on one moment or character and gives a trenchant impression about that character, an idea, setting, and/or object
The 'vignette in wax' can be a painting, sculpture, assemblage, installation, etc. that includes wax (encaustic, cold wax, or any other wax-based medium) as a primary element of the piece.
The 'and words' should be an evocative description (100 words or less) that describes or enhances the art. It can be a poem, a story, a journal entry, or a feeling put into words. For installations, sculptures, and paintings that require additional detail images, the description can be 200 words or less.
NOTE: Include the text in a .pdf or .doc file and attach it to the entry form.
Each entry should also include a high quality jpeg image at 300 ppi sized at a minimum of 1080 pixels for height and a minimum of 835 pixels for width. Images should not exceed a maximum file size of 4 MB each.
Installations, sculptures, and large paintings should also include two additional images of different views and/or details.
Entry is free to all IEA Members in good standing and $30 for non-IEA Members. Collaborations should be submitted as one entry and the entry fee is waved if the entry is submitted by an IEA member in good standing.
Each entrant is limited to one entry form. A maximum of two vignette submissions can be made per entry form.
